On the ice sheet.
The wind and snow howled.
In the vast white land of frost, there is a section that emits light that reaches into the sky.
Gu Qingshan and Laura stood on the edge of the cliff, waiting for the mission to end.
"Why hasn't it been judged that we have completed the mission?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Normally speaking, it takes a while to confirm, so don't worry." Laura said.
The two of them were talking, but they seemed to sense something and both shut up.
I saw constant ripples in the lava lake below.
Immediately afterwards, a strange thing floated to the surface of the magma.
It looks like a complete pine cone, and its size is like a small boat that can carry three or five people.
Under the infiltration of the molten slurry, the soil scum on the surface of the pine cone gradually melted away, revealing mysterious textures throughout the shell.
Apparently, this huge fruit shell was originally hidden at the bottom of the ice and snow abyss, guarded by countless snow demons.
If it hadn't been for the legendary pistol: the flaming bird Phoenix, which blasted away the entire ice and snow abyss in one fell swoop, no one would have discovered this fruit.
"What on earth is this?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Ice fruit," a strange look appeared on Laura's face, "This is the fruit of a precious tree in the strange area. It likes to hide in cold places. It can isolate the breath and resist all exploration. The only drawback is that it is afraid of high temperatures."
"No wonder it floated up." Gu Qingshan nodded.
This was such a coincidence. If the gun hadn't been used, the fruit would probably have remained hidden.
While the two were talking, they saw that the fruit was gradually unable to stay in the molten liquid.
Cracks gradually appear on the surface of the fruit.
"Snapped!"
The sound of shattering sounded.
The fruit is completely broken into many pieces.
An ice crystal-shaped feather exuding a cold aura appeared in front of the two of them.
It was held by a broken fruit shell, and for a moment it had not yet come into contact with the boiling molten lava.
As soon as this feather appeared suddenly, the surrounding lava suddenly extinguished.
Large swaths of molten material froze into lumps of gray-black stone.
However, what this ice crystal feather has to fight against is the entire magma lake, and its power is simply not enough.
The feathers quivered slightly.
Suddenly, the surface of the ice crystal feathers emits a faint layer of colorful light.
Laura’s expression changed.
She had recognized the feather.
"Save it quickly!" Laura screamed loudly.
"good."
Gu Qingshan used the Photography Technique, stood on the cliff and stretched out his hand from a distance.
The frost feather immediately flew into his hand.
The chill was biting.
A thin layer of white frost climbed onto his fingers and spread towards his arms.
Gu Qingshan used his spiritual energy to temporarily resist the frost.
This level of ice elemental power does not pose a threat to him.
But this was just a feather, and it had such power. When he thought about it carefully, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Gu Qingshan squinted his eyes and carefully observed the ice crystal feathers.
I saw a faint trace of blood on the feather.
The feather left the magma lake, and the layer of colorful light surrounding it became a bit weaker.
Laura was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, Gu Qingshan took action in time, otherwise the aura on this feather would have been completely exposed under the stimulation of the lava.
She was still uneasy and chanted a spell to the ice crystal feathers.
Gradually, all the light on the ice crystal feathers was absorbed into the feathers.
Feathers regained their composure.
"Phew - I hid its fluctuations, Tristes will not discover its existence." Laura took a long breath and said happily.
Gu Qingshan waited silently for her to finish all this before asking aloud: "What is this?"
Laura's face was a mixture of sadness and confusion.
"This is the feather of Cold Night Frost Ilia. It seems that she has been hiding here." Laura murmured.
"Is she an acquaintance of yours?"
"Yes, Ilia, the Frost of the Cold Night, and Triest, the Light of the Dawn, are the two strongest among the Thorn Birds."
"The Light of Dawn is responsible for the security work - she is in charge of all the royal guards and is in charge of all security issues."
"Trister took this opportunity when we left the kingdom and came to Abruxi to kill all my family members in one fell swoop and blocked the news."
"Where's the frost on the cold night?"
"She is responsible for all foreign wars in the Thorn Bird Kingdom."
Gu Qingshan realized the importance of this matter and raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.
"The army is under her command?" he asked.
"Yes."
"Why is she here?"
Laura shook her head and said: "I don't know. When we came out, Tristel was responsible for all the security work, and Ilia was responsible for guarding the country - but why are her feathers appearing here?"
Laura also fell into deep doubts.
What exactly is going on?
Gu Qingshan started to think quickly.
"I'll try to push it, see if I'm right," he said.
"Okay." Laura said.
"There was blood on the feathers, it looked like she was injured."
"Yes."
"Since she hid the feathers, she was obviously afraid that Tristes would find her traces."
Laura nodded and said: "After the thorn bird's feathers fall off, they still contain powerful power."
"It looks like she was injured outside and then she was able to enter this world."
"How do you know she was injured outside the world?" Laura asked.
"Because if she is injured in this world, it proves that she has fought here. But I remember you said that in a world of thorn birds, other thorn birds must not leak their breath, otherwise they will definitely be noticed."
"It can be inferred from this that she must have never fought here, so her injuries must have been sustained outside."
"Indeed." Laura said.
Gu Qingshan continued to think and said quickly: "Obviously, she was keenly aware of some kind of problem. Perhaps she learned some secret information, which made her suspicious of Tristel."
"That's why she came - but she came too late, Tristel had already succeeded."
"In the entire royal family, you are the only one who escaped."
"I believe she will know if she inquires a little bit, Her Royal Highness the Princess is missing."
Gu Qingshan looked at Laura and said quickly: "Your parents were replaced by impostors, but you are missing. Cold Night Frost Ilia will definitely track this down."
"Not even the spirit of the Eternal Holy Tree can detect your trace."
"So Frost of the Cold Night couldn't find you, so she had no choice but to come to Tristel's collection world to see if she could find you, and also to find out why Triste betrayed the royal family."
Gu Qingshan thought about it from beginning to end again, nodded and said: "It should be roughly like this."
After hearing this series of words, Laura was stunned for a while.
She felt that the person in front of her was really scary.
Fortunately, he is from the Iron Fist Club of Justice.
"No wonder..." Laura murmured in a low voice, "No wonder I sealed this world so easily. It turns out that the protective spells Trieste released on the outer layer of this world were already broken by Ilia. It's ridiculous. I still think it’s my luck that sealed this world.”
"You made Tristes unable to find this world, and she made Tristes not notice anything unusual. She did it better." Gu Qingshan praised.
While talking, Gu Qingshan fell into deep thought again.
He suddenly asked: "Ilia, Frost of the Cold Night - is she loyal to the royal family?"
"She is my godmother. She swore to the sacred tree of thorns to protect me."
"Where's Tristel?"
"She vowed to become stronger and protect everything worth protecting."
"How cunning. So what will happen if you violate this sacred tree oath?"
"The holy tree will take away all the mana from the thorn bird."
Gu Qingshan clapped his hands and said: "That's enough. It seems that Cold Night Frost is on our side. If we can find her, we will have a greater chance of defeating Tristel!"
Victory?
Laura was stunned.
From the time the disaster occurred to this moment, she had only one thought in her mind.
That is, the bloodline of the Thorn Bird Royal Family cannot be cut off. He must save his life and escape.
However, after seeing a feather, this man began to think about making a comeback.
Really...
Laura just felt that she didn’t know how to look at this matter.
At this time, the previous voice finally sounded.
"This mission has ended."
"You did very well and passed the first official task perfectly. If you can do as well in the future, you will receive accumulated generous rewards when you complete all tasks."
"I thought I would give you a reward now." Gu Qingshan murmured.
Just listen to the voice and continue: "The second battle: the landing battle is about to begin, please wait for one minute."
Gu Qingshan waited with Laura.
At this time, there was some movement on the God of War operation interface.
At this time, he happened to have some free time, and Gu Qingshan stared at the interface, looking at the small firefly characters that kept popping up on it.
"Highest alert: The God of War system has sensed the fire of the Doomsday Online in all worlds."
